Saturday 11th July 2015.
Hackney Downs and CC Hackney's Go-Race Grass Track event, including the Nightingale regulars and a solid CC Hackney contingent from the Concorde Centre's bike station. This event was delivered by CC Hackney and supported by Interlinkx CiC as part of the drive to bring in more of Hackney's would be sporting cyclists; those that would otherwise not join in if it weren't for ICiC's encouragement & positive interventions.

Fawcett Bike Club had peek attendance last Thursday (see pic) Members were on hand, getting busy for cycling in the summer time; a must do activity of course. We also had a new group of young lads looking to get the most out of their bikes. All of this was a coincidence as there was a new crop of fifteen 2nd hand cycles in house thanks to a fire sale at a recently closed down bike shop in Homerton. Little time, so much to do!

Even with the clamour to get on members took time out to feed back with comments and quotes for Fawcett Youth & Community Bike Club:

enjoy bike club as I intend on being an engineer when I'm older so
this is a good experience. I also like how you can just come in and
be attend to quickly and fix your bike. Since coming here I have
learnt much more about engineering and bikes.
